London – May 11, 2015 – Telit Wireless Solutions, a global enabler of the Internet of the Things (IoT), today announced that the Telit deviceWISE Application Enablement Platform has been selected as a core element of the new Tele2 IoT portal. The Telit Cloud-based IoT service lets Tele2 customers connect ‘things to apps’ by seamlessly integrating data from remote assets with their enterprise systems and web-based and mobile apps.
deviceWISE features turnkey functions for data acquisition, data communications and data consumption, allowing companies to innovate on top of their core competencies and business strengths. The do-it-yourself subscription service makes it easy for enterprises, large and small, to capitalize on opportunities enabled by the Internet of Things – reducing cost, time-to-market, complexity and risk versus trying to engineer a fragmented solution in house.
“We’re pleased that Tele2, one of the world’s most innovative telecom operators, and a real challenger in the M2M/IoT industry, has selected the Telit deviceWISE platform to power their new IoT solutions,” said Fred Yentz, President and CEO of ILS Technology, a Telit company. “Our deviceWISE Application Enablement Platform gives Tele2 customers an instant ‘onramp’ to the Internet of Things for monitoring and control, industrial automation, asset tracking, field service operations and predictive maintenance across virtually all industries and market segments.”
The new Tele2 IoT Portal, announced this morning, provides customers self-service access to incident reporting, contact management, planned/unplanned maintenance messages and service reporting. From the Tele2 IoT Portal customers have direct full access to all the features and capabilities of the Telit deviceWISE service.
“We are excited about the prospect of being able to further help our customers and partners to simplify the entry into M2M/IoT. The Telit deviceWISE platform enables our customers and partners to reduce the time to market and the investment required to connect their assets. This is a further proof of our strong partnership that extends now not only to devices and connectivity but also includes the management and control of the information.” Said Rami Avidan Commercial Director Tele2 M2M.
Fred Yentz, President and CEO of ILS Technology, will present “Things to Apps – The Internet of Things Made Plug and Play” at M2M Talks, a high-profile IoT industry event by Tele2, held on May 12th in Stockholm, Sweden.
